And so the migraine blisters on. And for some mysterious reason my right arm aches around the elbow area for no reason. And I don't think those migraine relief pills are really working anymore. Back to the paracetamol & codeine tonight.

I was kind of happy that I missed karate though hearing from PreZ what that class was like... it ran for almost two hours and shihan taught it, so it was a tough one.

I hope this migraine lets up soon, or I'm going to have to reconsider some weekend plans. I'm not going to be much fun at a crawfish boil (which apparantly now is sans crawfish due to flooding in Lousiana... bollocks!) with a splitting head.

In the periods of time I've spent away from the computer I have managed to get almost half of the hourglass design stitched onto the tshirt, so some progress at least.

Anyway, time to go nurse my fruit juice and 2 ibuprofen and hope that this makes a little dent in this headache that seems to have come back with a vengance. And not 24 hours ago I thought I was rid of the fucker... remind me not to cheer too soon anymore.

Elbow pain can eminate from the carpal tunnel.
Try this,
rub the back of your neck, about half an inch from the spine on each side.

rub your lower back, near the lumbar vertabrae, about 1.5 inches from both sides of the spine.
rub the spot between your index finger and your thumb. The tense muscle.
All these might help the elbow thing if you can't see a chiropractor.
(My chiropractors number is 845-279-3400)
As for the migraine. When it's coming on, lay down in a dark room.
Put a towel over your head if you need to.
Do not look at any computer monitors or flourescent lights.
relax until it passes.
putting a small amount of ice in your mouth and slowly swirling it around the back of the mouth helps some people.

Things that might be triggering it.
Mixed lighting. (tungsten and flourescent.)
Low refresh rates on a computer monitor.
food sensitivity. spices and such.

I hope you feel better soon!
